SCOUT'S TAKE

Skinny: Stuckey is the complete package at safety. He is athletic, strong, fast, and has unmatched instincts. He has great field vision and can read the quarterback’s eyes and react swiftly. He has good size at 6-1 205 pounds and although he excels at defending the pass, he will not hesitate to come up and support the run. He has good speed and is an aggressive, hard-hitting safety. He is a team leader on defense and almost single-handedly anchored the Jayhawks’ secondary last season, recording 98 tackles, five interceptions, seven pass breakups, two forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery. He will be a safety to watch for in 2009, both for fans and opposing quarterbacks.
